Find me... sipping coffee in sunlit squares in Athens, paddling through turquoise bays in Fethiye, nibbling flaky banitsa in Sofia’s winding streets, and weaving through Istanbul’s Grand Bazaar.

I had an amazing time. Both trip managers were wonderful, super helpful and lots of fun. I really enjoyed all the places we went and the activities. Going in May was definitely a good idea, the weather was warm but not too hot and the crowds were an okay size.
This tour was a perfect balance of amazing food, historical sites, and sightseeing, and time to do things on your own. We had such a dynamic and charismatic group leader that made the whole experience that much better. Wide range of activities, which made interesting aspects to the food tour theme… it was a magnificent trip!

What an amazing trip! The itinerary was great! The sunset dinner on the sailboat was awesome as was the hike in the foothills of Mt. Zeus. I had a great time in Athens, Naxos, and Santorini. Excellent food! Plenty of wonderful group experiences as well as time to explore on your own. The very best thing about the Greek Island Tour was Charlotte, our tour guide. She was so knowledgeable, fun, and very considerate of the unique needs of every member of our group. Heads up for this Greek experience; be prepared to walk up and down uneven ground or steps for long periods of time. Hiking poles are a good choice to consider for this trip!

The island tours and optional experiences provided were so worthwhile! These experience allowed us the opportunity to truly experience the places we visited and learn fascinating and phenomenal pieces of information. The costsaver and local guides truly made the optional experiences a part of the trip we HAD to experience for every place we visited.
